Work on Qt 5.8 has begun :)

So...



Does anyone have a suggestion for a good versioning system/source repository to use for such large codebase?? Is there a working git environment nowadays? Has sourceforge/svn kept up with the times? Suggestions and other kinds of information very welcome :).

@alfkil

wonderful !

...and has stopped again...



Suggestions?

Yes, of course as usual ! :)

As it ask for c++11, it mean you need more recent vesion of GCC.

4.2.4 and co are no go, experemental support of c++11 was added 4.8.1, and started from 5.x it is in. So you need to build or 5.x version or 6.x version from Adtools page (that one which on github, and no old one from SF, as maybe on github some new bugs was fixed/addded).

Probably better to choice 5.x one , as i see that recent MUI builds done via "GCC: (adtools build 5.3.0)" , so that ones definately tested well already and have c++11 support too.

From another side 6.x can be intersting to try as well, as it have C++14 support (which may also intersting some day or maybe QT already may support it), but at least 5.x tested with MUI (and probably YAM) already. I myself buld both some time ago, but didn't test them much.

Thanks. :) You don't have to have a working toolchain of any of these versions lying about........? ;)

@alfkil

SimpleGit works with Github and Bitbucket. At least basic things like clone, commit, push.

I can checkout an SVN project from Sourceforge but can't commit. If I remember correctly it was related to SSL support.

@alfkil

The archive you're looking for is http://aminet.net/package/dev/gcc/adtools-os4

Good luck!

@Alfkil

Wow, good luck mate

When I try and commit using sgit, I get this:

What am I supposed to do?

Try:

sgit config user.name alfkil
sgit config user.email alfkil@mailaddress

@Capehill

Thanks.

I have done 'sgit add whateverfiles' and 'sgit commit -m "My message"'. But the files have not been committed (they don't show up in the web interface, and they are not there, when I make a new clone).

What am I missing?

@alfkil

If you have commited them, they are only in your local repo. You have to push the commits to remote. For example

sgit push origin master

supposing you are working on the master branch.

@Capehill

Thanks!



Now what?!

Usuall c++ crap :) I offten have such kind of error when trying to compile something heavy c++ based. Not exactly of wstring, but of such kind. Usually fix it by adding some more includes and/or by pure shifting code's functions from one source file to another :)

@kas1e
This one won't be a piece of cake, because the unicode wide character handling is not implemented in any OS4 C libraries as far as I know. This is why there's no std::wstring. All of this is missing:

I had the same problem until balaban sent me some Subversion prefs changes. At the bottom of the "servers" file in the Subversion configuration directory I added this:

I'm able to commit to sf.net repositories now.

@BSzili

Apparently this little piece of code 'solves' the problem (for now).

Does anyone have an emulation/implementation of popen()/pclose() lying about??

@BSzili

Both clib2 and newlib OS4 includes have "wchar.h" and "wctype.h" which appear to have prototypes for at least some of the wide functions listed at the link you provided.

@alfkil
Maybe it's not what you're looking for but there are prototypes for those 2 functions in newlib & clib2 includes (in stdio.h).

@xenic
Neat, I stand corrected.
